On today’s episode of Complicated Conversations we are excited to chat with Kennedy Ryan about her new novel, Before I Let Go, a moving story of love, loss and a second chance at love for a divorced couple.
We chat with Kennedy about the inception of this novel, which was resurrected from an early draft of a story she initially wrote 15 years ago; how she leaned into joy and friendship in the creation of her female protagonist’s journey; how Kennedy “wore the skin of this book” and the ways art imitated life during her writing; how the novel reads like a love letter to therapy; what she loves about a second chance romance and the unique twist she put on it here; self-forgiveness and self-compassion as a tool for growth and healing; the gaping hole of grief and its actual effects on the brain; and ALL the things Kennedy is enthusiastically loving right now!
